The Claiborne Parish Library will host a program by “Anna the Archer,” a competitive archer, bow hunter, and outdoor advocate on Saturday, March 26.
During the program, Anna will discuss the sport of archery, including bow hunting deer and nutria, archery competitions, natural resource conservation, and many other topics.
“My mission is to increase archery participation by educating and promoting positive, ethical and safe archery practices,” Anna said. “I was introduced to archery and hunting in college, and I strive to educate and get others involved in the outdoors.”
When Anna is not in the woods or swamps, she works as a media strategist for the LSU AgCenter in Baton Rouge. She holds a B.S. in horticultural science and is currently completing graduate work in communications.
Archery is growing in Louisiana, particularly through 4-H and school programs.
The program is scheduled for 2 p.m. at the main library at 909 Edgewood Drive, Homer.
The program is free to the public. Young and old alike are encouraged to attend. Door prizes will be drawn and light refreshments provided.
